    I've had a pet projects that involved a lot of geo-things. I've tried heaps of ways to do it but nothing comes close to Google unfortunately. Especially in non-USA addresses. Are p…

    I'm no expert but NZ houses suck. Little to no insulation. Some air can go in gaps between doors and windows, etc. Central heating is non-existant. Old stock. Mouldy. Damp. During …

    I tried to switch to Firefox. But the biggest roadblock for me were Profiles. My Google Chrome profiles are so old and useful that I feel handicapped when on Firefox. Also, does Fi…

    The beta version of the slack app for macOS seem to be better https://slack.com/beta/osx I can run it all day without problems. The non-beta one, consumed too much RAM.

    I'm always interested in these kinds of data. A few months ago, I was looking at different open sources to geocode a lot of addresses around the world. I have tried openstreetmap a…
